When I first got into hosting, we had to call somebody at our data center any time a customer wanted to make changes to their configuration, such as adding more resources. Our Racker in the DC would have to locate the physical server and install additional hardware to the machine, or they might have to build and provision a completely new server. Our Cloud Application Programming Interface (API) has changed the game, allowing our customers to easily modify their cloud configuration with just a few lines of code. The API is a powerful tool and something all of our customers should know about, regardless of their level of technical ability.

TruQC is a cloud-based quality control documentation app for the iPad. Its goal is to make it easier to manage and monitor projects, achieve true objectivity, keep data safe with real-time syncing, have pertinent data at your fingertips and ensure the necessary documents are always in one place.

Among the many reasons why people choose the cloud, one of the most powerful is the Application Programming Interface, more commonly referred to as the API. As developers continue adopting virtual environments to host their sites and apps, we’re seeing increasingly innovative and powerful uses of this feature.

Remember when software used to be rolled out on year-long cycles? When you would wait with baited breath for the next big application for your PC, or for the next big game? Once upon a time, all the latest and greatest software was typically so expensive that only businesses and companies could afford the bleeding edge applications and systems for things like video conferencing, 3D modeling and programming suites. The democratization of IT has changed this, and a central player in this game has been the cloud. I love how the cloud has accelerated the speed of innovation.
